No, this would be a conference call.

Good idea--this could serve as a good source of information for 
them as
well.  However, I'm not sure if we would want them to participate 
actively
in the call itself or whether we would want to have a recording 
and/or
notes available online for them to reference later.  While there 
will
doubtless be information provided on such a call which would be 
useful to
those professionals, I think it would be nice to have a call in 
which blind
high school students could talk amongst ourselves without TVI's 
being
involved.  Thoughts?

Sounds good to me.  If this were to happen, if it was possable, 
you should
alert the VI aids and helpers who work with us high school 
students, that
way they are aware too.

High school is  definitely one of the most challenging parts of 
my life in
more than one sense  learning that I was not  alone  in dealing 
with
accommodations and trying to figure out realistic expectations 
for myself
was certainly something I wish I  had  better feel for.

 I am wondering if NABS was to organize a call where high school 
students
could get some of their questions answered by fellow high school 
students
in a safe environment would any of you be interested i this?
 we would want to maintain this as a place where high school 
students would
feel comfortable asking questions  and knowing they would get 
sound advice
from each other.  we  would have a more experienced member of 
NABS there as
a support, but mainly
this would be the high school student’s   time.
  thoughts?

If there's anything I can do to assist anyone on this list with
math/science sorts of things: provide pointers on a question, 
provide a
nonvisual description, anything like that feel free to contact 
me.  I'm
also willing to give pointers to parents so they can more easily 
explain
things if that would be helpful as well.
